In Grandpa's old perfume cabinet...
Well, where do I start?
I thought, I take me for my first review here on Parfumo times one of my personal favorites.
Last year against May I was looking for a nice summer fragrance that you could have worn for nice walks, or if you wanted to enjoy with friends outside just the sun. By the way, it should be said that I'm someone who likes to watch classic movies, because they usually put more emphasis on the story than on big action and a lot of boom boom ;).
So I went on my search to our local Douglas with some knowledge from Youtube, what would be the top 10 for the summer. There were already a couple with it had done to me, for the time being I had decided then for Versace pour Homme, without knowing that my future at the bottom of the shelf, already almost hidden waiting for me. At home then the typical "Jo guys, how does it smell?". The approval was great and the Versace was already in the shopping cart. On the way to the door I passed an old perfume cabinet from my grandfather, with lots of miniature samples from the 80s. In the past, I wasn't particularly interested in this cabinet, but since I learned about the perfume world, I became a bit curious and took a closer look. Azzaro pour Homme and as expected Dior Eau Sauvage stood out. I already knew Sauvage and therefore my interest was accordingly large, but after the first smell I realized very fast that I held something completely different in the hand...lemony...aromatic...fresh and nevertheless somewhat grassy. Immediately an image came into my head along with the terms Michael Corleone, Sicily in the summer and The Godfather. It was love at first smell and this scent was everything I ever wanted to be. That same day I went back to Douglas and right at the bottom there it was, when it should have been much higher up. Of course, this scent has been reformulated and it definitely doesn't smell as aromatic as my grandpa's, but it's still a beautiful one and for me belongs in any collection young or old. The current version smells very lemony and less aromatic, adapted accordingly for today. It will always have a place in my ever growing collection and I can't wait to unwrap it again this summer. Summery fresh gentleman class in a bottle(which also looks very cool vintage) ;) When my 100ml is coming to an end, I'm sure I'll get the 200ml, if not the 400ml. Oh and Versace pour Homme has bought my brother, he found him horny when I had him on hand :D
-Abstract and rating:
Durability 5/10
- 3-4Std. unfortunately, unfortunately below average and direction cologne, but wat willste make is just a citrus freshman . Wild water triffts. For the summer is enough, just spray a lot and every few hours nachlegen.
Sillage 7/10
- Is 1-1.5 hours well perceptible then he takes off
Fragrance 10/10
- As already said a great! Lemon, spice, class in the bottle, for anyone who wants a gentleman aura :) Smells very natural too, bit like fresh squeezed lemonade with some spicy gin.
Reactions 8/10
-Comes with almost everyone pleasantly, who is looking here but a typical crowdpleaser like all the blue representatives is here perhaps wrong. Rather a personal fragrance and at my age(20) with some self-confidence to wear.
Use 8/10
- Immergeher in the summer, whether in the morning to freshen up, at noon at work or in the evening on a beer with the boys. Nothing for nightly dates or the club (which are eh to :D )
Flacon 10/10
-Sprays top, bull's eye, noble, vintage, class, nothing more to say.
